Atlanta Weekend

Hubby surprised me on Christmas with the knowledge that he had planned a weekend getaway in Atlanta for the two of us.  We were going to leave the kiddos with this family in St. Louis and he and I were flying to Atlanta for about 36 hours and to watch Michigan play in the Peach Bowl.

We had a great time -- two nights, one day just the two of us.

 Champagne and peach schnapps before our plane took off (seemed fitting as we headed to the Peach Bowl)

 Even our hotel (our AMAZINGLY beautiful and upscale hotel) was cheering for Michigan... notice the maize and blue decorations.

 Morning workout at the hotel and morning text to my mom complete with Michigan pride.

Headed to the game!



The rotunda had flat screens around it.



We had amazing seats...




Right in the action

Hi Coach Harbaugh!

Former Michigan Heisman Trophy Winner Charles Woodson as he was inducted into the Peach Bowl Hall of Fame.


After the game... Michigan lost but we had a great time nonetheless.  This was a picture Hubby insisted on taking... having fun with the camera.  The statue is on my head.

Atlanta.

Fun at the Georgia Aquarium.


Soaking wet after the Dolphin Show... we were happy with our decision to buy ponchos.









The hotel stay came with  complimentary drink passes at their Bourbon Lounge.  So we enjoyed a drink before going to dinner.

Atlanta Seafood Market... AMAZING food!


Really cool lamps...

On the plane headed home less than 36 hours from our takeoff.

Last cup of coffee before getting back to the kids.

The kids were a little emotional at seeing us as you can kind of see from the picture.  As soon as we walked through the door, we jumped in matching pjs for MillRod Family Christmas.
